A mixer for products generally disposed in containers, such as, for example, varnishes, paints and the like, comprises a support structure to which a unit, generally movable selectively along a predetermined path, for supporting and clamping at least one container, is connected. The support unit comprises two clamping plates which are mounted on linear sliding guides and are rotatable about a common vertical axis in the operative condition. A plurality of idle wheels roll along an annular path on a surface of each plate in order to withstand loads perpendicular to the plates. The upper support plate can be driven along an axis parallel to the common axis by means of driving screws and is mounted on linear sliding guides and the lower support plate is slidable selectively along an axis perpendicular to the common axis.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A roto-vibratory mixer for products generally disposed in a container, said mixer comprising a support structure, holding means comprising an inner frame mounted on the support structure and movable along a first predetermined path, roto-vibratory motion producing means for moving said holding means with a combined mixing motion consisting of a vibration and a rotation of the container, first and second opposed clamping members mounted on said inner frame for movement relative to the inner frame for clamping said container therebetween, at least said first clamping member being movable selectively from a first loading position, in which said container can be placed on the second clamping member, to a second operative position in clamping engagement with said container, actuator means for selectively bringing about the movement of said first clamping member on said inner frame from the first position to the second position and vice versa, and guide means distinct from the actuator means for guiding the linear sliding of the first clamping member along a first predetermined axis during movement of said first clamping member from the first position to the second position.
